Almost every psychic reading at the start of the year, was with someone who felt that rather than hitting the ground running, that they had plunged head first into freezing icy water. More like they were drowning than running sadly. A LOT of people had the unreasonable expectation that “this is THE year” then the fart popped, well more like fizzled really.

Thankfully THAT “explosive universal energy cycle” (I predicted 2019 but came in January 2020) has calmed right down. So, for those of you who didn’t have a 12-month psychic prediction, you may not have been aware of what I had sensed that is currently affecting all of us.

For the first time in years, I tuned in with current Chinese astrology, the combination of YIN-WATER and RABBIT. This means both fluidity and hope. (Yin-Water is the rain, dew, pond, or brooks). In Chinese culture, rabbits are a symbol of longevity, peace, and prosperity. To be honest, I didn’t see many people benefitting from the extra prosperity part, but I did see some interesting – the year would have energy flow like seasons. So, it was up to each person, on each personal journey, of how to navigate this. Think along the lines of either unwanted flooding, storing excess water, for when it’s needed later or even trying to eradicate it. Then think, sailing along peacefully in summer, shedding and changes in autumn and so on…

As a rule (you could be the exception of course) this is probably not the year for most people to have big dramatic wins, or catastrophic losses thankfully for that matter. But it is a time to nurture seeds, reshape dreams, and put in place the foundation for what you want out of life; even if its only mentally. Many empaths felt an energy shift recently, it’s the universe’s way of telling the evolved to accept a change in pace, to slow down a little but think before acting. We often assume there is an obvious action to take or perhaps no solution in sight, when in fact we need to step back, take a breath, see the bigger picture and look out of the box. In my own experience, nothing is impossible with a shift in attitude and sometimes, a little help.

Don't forget you can count on my for your personal psychic reading, in-person or remotely. Tarot card readings & spiritual guidance

As you just read, adding Tik-Tok is new, so excuse me if it’s a little random right now!

And I've also opened my Spotify music to you, including healing lists...

For all of us the cost of living rose. My overheads dramatically increased, (as a pro, as opposed to an amateur, there’s tax, insurance, software, marketing etc). BUT I did not want to change the 45- or 60-minute readings, or the fee for you visiting me. As I’m in this with you!

However, in order for me to not take a big hit and to maintain these prices, I made the decision to bring the two-hour online readings more inline, so these are now £120, yet they still represent best value at £60 an hour and can be shared by two – privately or together. It also means that it’s the same price if you have one service (a two hour reading) or two – for example, selecting a portion of the time to be dedicated to a past life regression, or my favourite, personally developed, mental health healing tool, Mental Magic.

Most weeks, my phone and online availability for tarot card readings, looks something like this - 9am-midnight Mon-Fri. Sat 10-10pm. (Sundays start later in the day and vary). Due to my long hours, I’m often available with just 15 minutes notice, subject to availability of course. At the moment whilst I’m away, I’m working 8am-10pm and back to the above, June 16th.

So, the writing side of my trip, has become rather interesting, because I was convinced, I’d be writing a book about dramatic experiences, like my last; but no matter how I tried to get into the groove, the universe seems to want me to write about personal development, so I’m all over it! As is often the case “timing is everything” and so post me asking for signs during meditation, things I’ve seen during them, have suddenly appeared in readings. So, I’ve had quite a few intense sessions over the last few days, with some real twists!

I’m back at my re-charging point, my soul-sanctuary, the island of Kythera, Greece; where as you may know, I married in September. As I write to you; I am facing a turquoise sea, a golden sandy beach and tiny yachts with white sails bobbing gently about. Before landing here, I did a little island hopping and visited Hydra and Spetses for the first time, both of which were stunning…

As you sail into Hydra, this cosmopolitan beauty, is built up on many levels like an amphitheatre. It is a smattering of different colours with simple houses nestled between huge imposing grand manors. At various times through the ages, the island has been known for its prosperity (shipping merchants). Most of the time I stuck to the port, which was pretty spectacular. For once, I was not in a hurry to go sightseeing or slog museums but to just sit and watch the world go by. Cars aren’t allowed here, and mules and donkeys take their place.

The island is also famous for the singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen who once lived there. As I visited, there was a festival for his many fans. One evening I sat outdoors in the courtyard of a traditional taverna, when a large table next to me, got out guitars and started singing. It was quite special, there were twinkly fairy lights on the trellis, the sun was just setting and the sky, deep orange. All the hair went up on the back of my neck when they started to sing “Hallelujah”. It always sends a shiver up my spine, because it sounds like a heart wrenching, melancholy hymn. However, on this occasion it made me emotional for other reasons. You see this song is very special to my husband and I. We originally chose it for our beach wedding on Kythera. However, we decided it was too heavy for a sunny beach and so it got played for our simple, intimate UK registry (a legal formality), instead. The funny thing is, that because it was never played at our Greek island ceremony, our dear French friend Eric, who was present at the island ceremony, would never have known this - which is why, after he passed away suddenly a few weeks later, I was stunned when it was played at his funeral. AND in both cases, my favourite Jeff Buckley version; if you’ve never heard it then go listen.

As you arrive at the port of Spetses, you are struck by gleaming white Venetian mansions, with mainly terracotta roof tiles. Like many islands, she has been invaded many times, affecting the architectural style. Famous for a role in the Greek war of independence, the celebrated war heroine Bouboulina, has a life size statue on the dock.

The seafront offers a lovely walk to a second bay. Sometimes it feels like you are on a bee colony because this is another island that doesn’t allow cars, and instead of four legged friends like on Hydra, Spetses is full of motorbikes and mopeds - and when walking around, you hear the constant buzzing of bikes. My autism kept going into overtime, seeing people in vests and shorts, without helmets, let alone protective pads! I resisted the urge to educate But I appreciate it is very warm too.

But there really is nowhere quite like Kythera. I have many friends here, so it’s like a second home. I will be here until June 15th. Wow, I’ve just looked at the calendar and seen that’s coming around quickly!

Do you think you are too old or stupid to learn a new skill or follow a once forgotten dream?

Stop and think again! When I was in my 20’s, living in Leeds, I had a brief stint as a DJ. It happened accidentally but I LOVED it! In my 30’s, I had a brief stint (yep, accidentally again) as a reportage / festival photographer. At this point I got up close with Goldie, Tiestso and Lisa Lashes. If you don’t know those names, don’t worry; they didn’t mean anything to me at the time and I had to keep asking people! (I have some great stories from that time too!). Let’s just say, they were the CREAM of the electronic dance scene. I watched in awe at these professionals, using far more sophisticated equipment than I ever had. Now fast forward to today. For my wedding, I compiled long list of specially mixed dance tracks I loved. Lacking in the equipment, I hired a DJ on a site called Fiverr who was originally from the Ukraine. With his expertise, he put a set together, in order to record them for me onto a memory stick. But he didn’t do it at home, no – apparently, he did the set LIVE! And he told me it went down a storm. When it was played at my wedding the guests loved it and once again, I had the bug. Since, I’ve been watching DJ’s on Tik-Tok (or Tick-Tack as I’ve been calling it) and suddenly had a massive impulsive, (probably another ADHD dopamine induced urge), to have another go. With the autism / ADHD, there can be a tendency to hyper-focus, spend on high end items then burn out and dump the hobby, so I have not got too carried away with hardware yet. But for my birthday, I treated myself to a course at the London Sound Academy. So, watch this space. I’m not telling you this to impress you, if anything, it sounds a little nutty for a 53-year-old woman! But if losing two friends of a similar age to me suddenly, and also recovering from my cancer, has taught me anything – it’s FUCK PROCRASTINATION, SCREW EXCUSES, DEVISE A PLAN, HAVE A BASH!
